Bethel's forensics team
has been competing in
speaking and debate tour-naments
almost every
weekend this semester. Al-though
Bethel is a relative-ly
small school, the team,
a co-curricular extention
of the speech-communica-tion
department, is doing
very well.
Last weekend, Nov. 7 - 8,
Bethel competed in the
first annual Cross Exami-nation
Debate Association
(CEDA) Invitational at the
University of Wisconsin-
LaCrosse. Bethel placed sec-ond
in the debate tourna-ment,
with Beth Neufeld
and Mark Publow partic-ipating.
Bethel took four
of the sixteen teams in the
competition.
Coach Butch Maltby
said that all the teams did
very well although many
of the people from Bethel
had very little debate ex-perience.
Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 Bethel
competed in the McArthur
Invitational at the Univer-sity
of Wisconsin-River
Falls. This tournament
was exclusively individual
competition. Bethel's Mike
Wiseman took third place
in impromptu speaking. In
this event the speaker re-ceives
an unknown topic
and has seven minutes for
both preparation and speak-ing
on that topic. Rick
Kreutzfeldt also qualified
for finals in impromptu.
Bethel also traveled to
Colorado Springs, Oct.
22-25 to compete in the
Another new feature is
the Santa Lucia Pageant.
The Santa Lucia is a Scan-dinavian

woman, will portray
Santa Lucia. Six women
students at Bethel will be

Receiving credit for a
class or becoming exempt
from one appeals to most
students. Advanced Place-ment
tests, College Level
Examination Program
(CLEP) tests and Bethel
department tests are three
ways that students can
receive exemption or cre-dit
for courses.
The Advanced Place-ment
tests from the Col-lege
Examination Board
schools, he said.
Each Bethel department
involved decides exemp-tions
and credits to be re-ceived.
A fee is charged
when the rest of the test is
taken.
CLEP tests are also ta-ken
for college credit. Ac-cording
to Finlay, primar-ily
post-secondary people
'take them. "They take the
exams to get credit for
their knowledge," said Fin-lay.
The tests, developed
by the Educational Test-ing
Service, can give a stu-dent
credit for a basic
course.
There are two types of
CLEP examinations. With
a general examination,
which contains five basic
areas, a student can re-ceive
up to six semester
credits at Bethel for each
exam on which she scores
at or above the 50th nation-al
percentile.
The subject examina-tions
measure achievement
in specific college course
areas. Students may re-ceive
three semester cred-its
for each examination
covering the material equi-valent
to one semester's
work, providing the score's
at or above the 50th per-centile.
The department
again determines the cre-dit
a student may receive
for a subject test.
A course taken at Bethel
is worth four semester cre-dits.
The maximum num-ber
of CLEP credits a stu-dent
can apply to a degree
is 30.
Credits earned by this
type of examination do not
affect a grade point aver-age.
Transcripts state that
the person has successful-ly
completed the exam for
the designated area and
how many credits were
accepted.
Some departments at Be-thel
give tests at the be-ginning
of the year to de-termine
the appropriate
class level for students.
Through these tests also,
top-scoring students may
apply for exemption from
a basic level class.
To receive credit for a
course not available
through CLEP or Advanced
Placement, the student
should contact the depart-ment
chairman. Each de-partment

editorial
When we choose Bethel,
we choose 'lifestyle' too
Some issues allow for exaggerated coverage in the
press. Other issues are only minimally suited to long
expositions. The lifestyle at Bethel, ideally, should fall
into the latter category, but unfortunately, finds itself
stretched out of proportion all too many times.
Bethel lifestyle is a fact of life on this campus. What-ever
grumbling may go on about its demands on "free-dom,"
there can be no denying that each person who
accepts admission onto this campus accepts the pre-cepts
of the Bethel lifestyle. The choice belongs to the
individual.
Last week's editorial dealt with the possibility of
students being required to resign the lifestyle statement
at the beginning of each semester. The point raised was
valid, asking only that we be given the benefit of any
possible doubt, and be treated like the young adults we
are. Our word is to be valued—give us credit for that.
Now the question, "why all the commotion?" We
asked for it, and now we've got it. Bethel didn't force us
to come here. There are many other fine educational
institutions that set forth no such "code" to live by. We
have a choice.
People on every level at Bethel are confronted with
the lifestyle statement when they want to join the
community. The statement itself says that the lifestyle
is "intended for our community life." The standards are
not set up for all Christians. It was drawn up, approved
and voted on by the Board of Regents for this commun-ity
and none other. Janitors, secretaries, professors,
cooks—even the president of the college—sign the
statement. Students are not the sole recipients of the
confines of the lifestyle.
We are a free people. We have the right to question,
petition, complain and work for change or adjustment.
There may be parts of the lifestyle that seem rigid and
tough to live by, especially in today's society. There
may be parts that sound old-fashioned. But Bethel does
not deny that it is a tradition. It is a tradition that has
been determined by to what is "necessary to build a
Christian community."
Once we are here we are hound. Working to change
the lifestyle from within serves only to weaken the
foundation on which the community has been building
for many years. We are not in a position to tear down a
tradition.
We have asked that our word be valued, trusted and
respected. Bethel asks that we value, trust, respect and
uphold its tradition.

Anderson works toward unity
An open letter to John B.
Anderson
Dear John:
Congratulations on stick-ing
to your guns right
through to the end. Those
who said, "He'll give up,"
are whistling a different
tune.
Two themes run through
the deep structures of Rea-gan
rhetoric. One of them,
the "horizontal theme," fo-cuses
on the past-present
of our nation and says,
"the best future is one in
which life is as much like
the mythologized past as
possible."
The other, the "vertical
theme," focuses on the na-tion
and its boundaries and
says, "the best condition is
one in which the rest of
the human community
serves our national pur-poses."
Should this analysis be
borne out in a Reagan ad-ministration
oriented to na-tional
past, not global fu-ture,
and should the pre-sent
technological gap be-tween
ourselves and the
under-developed become a
more critical global issue,
and should our present un-fair
advantage in exploit-ing
the earth's resources
be called into question in
the court of world opinion,
you and Jerry Brown may
•find yourselves in a fight
to the finish between Rea-gan
on the right and Mon-dale/
Kennedy on the left.
If you should decide to
continue your effort to-ward
national unity, in a
third party or under ano-ther
umbrella, you must
take a case for a global
future in which the United
States cooperates with

Dear Editor:
In the Oct. 31 issue of
the Clarion your publica-tion
gave two reasons for
my resignation from sen-ate.

misunderstanding of my

other nations to close the
technological gap and man-age
global resources.
There is no future but a
global one. There is no jus-tification
for maintaining
or increasing the techno-logical
gap. There is no
moral right to use our tech-nological
competence to
consume more than our
fair share of the earth's
resources.
I suggest that this case
is more broadly accepta-ble
on a global and nation-al
scale and more authen-tically
Christian and broad-ly
humanitarian than the
case for a national future
that competes for the
world's limited resources
with a gigantic technolog-ical
head start.
More than any of the
other voices heard in the
campaign just ended, yours
seemed to be reaching for
just such a case. I wish
you well in formulating it,
articulating it, sharing it
and defending it. I pledge
my continued support.
Your friend,
Donald N. Larson
Dear Editor,
One aspect of Bethel per-iodically
nauseates me: the
the misused affluence of
our community.
A lot of money is repre-sented
at Bethel, which
itself is not wrong. The
nauseating part is that this
money is spent, I think, on
the over-extravagant ma-terial
things.
Walking past the circle
parking lot I see Cadillacs,
foreign sports cars, vans—
all sorts of 1980-model
cars.
Walking into class I see
leather coats, designer
jeans, expensive watches
and jewelry.
Walking through the PE
building I see Nikes, Pu-mas,
name-brand racquet-ball
racquets and balls and
special carrying bags for
them.
In winter, famous-name
skis and poles, ski boots
and ski outfits abound.
Granted, finances are
"tight" for some at Bethel.
But the point is, shouldn't
we all (students, faculty,
administrators) spend/use
our money more "wisely"?
Use it less on new cars
and expensive clothes and
name-brand sports equip-ment
and more on people
who need food, medical
care and shelter?
"Stewardship" grates on
most everyone's nerves.
We all sit through ser-mons,
chapels and prayer-and-
shares about it. Per-haps
we should try it in-stead
of talking about it.
Instead of buying that new
improved racquetball rac-quet
or that cashmere
sweater, we should sent
the money to -World Vis-ion,
CARE or some other
charity.

"They want us to come,"
stressed Paul Nethercott
upon his return from the
International Student Con-sultation
on Frontier Mis-sions.
He was referring to
the countries represented
at the consultation that
are primarily unreach-ed
by Christian ministries.
The consultation, held
in Edinburgh, Scotland,
was the first time that non-
Western and Western
mission board leaders
came together. The watch-word
for the consultation
was "A church for every
people by the year 2000."

tied for 29th place in this
competition.
That same weekend Phil-ip
Rohier took six stu-dents

Rohier said most of
these students in this com-petition
had little or no
experience beforehand. "In
my analysis of the tour-nament
we did very well.
We placed fourth and for
some of these people it
was their first experience.
They said on the way home
they felt they had learned
something about them-selves."
Seventeen schools par-ticipated
in this tourna-ment.
According to Rohier,
"Bethel is viewed as a
strong contender in every
tournament we attend."

Nethercott, a '79 Bethel

Western mission societies
in expanding these fronti-ers
and expanding the vis-ion,"
said Nethercott. The
focus on frontier missions
refers to places without

Many schools' teams are
larger, 10-15 students.
Placement is based on
points earned by individ-ual
participants. Bethel
students usually compete
the young people, since
they obviously have the
highest potential.
About nine students at
the consultation represent-ing
the different areas of
the world met after much
prayer, said Nethercott.
They developed this pledge:
"By the grace of God, and
for His glory, I commit my
entire life to obeying His
commission of Matt. 28:18-

He leads me, giving prior-ity
to the peoples current-ly
beyond the reach of the
Gospel (Rom. 15:20-21). I
will also endeavor to im-part
this vision to others."
Exposure to the world
situation concerning fron-tier
missions and an open-ness
to God's plan are what
Nethercott stated as the
aims of the pledge.
"I thought it was impor-tant
that if I went, I
(would) come to Bethel to
share missions in general
and Edinburgh in particu-lar,"
said Nethercott. "We
need thousands of people
at home praying and financ-ing.

important as someone ac-tually

Understanding abstract art takes time
By Doug Barkey
It seems like Bethel has always had an overabun-dance
of art critics on campus. In fact, it is amazing the
number of students that are so knowledgeable about
art. After all, its not a small matter to call an art piece
"junk," a word often spoken in reference to the sculp-tures
and other words of abstract art that enhance the
campus. After a lengthy three-second analysis, "junk,"
or some other signal of disgust, is tossed out to indicate
that the art work doesn't contain any recognizable
object.
Ironically, most people think they understand an
artwork if they can recognize something in it; however,
a good representational piece is much more than first
impressions. Few people seem to recognize the fact that
abstract art and representational art deal with the same
forms, shapes, composition and ideas; they just express
them differently.
A correct analogy would be the relation of the English
language to the Spanish language. In comparison,
abstraction and representation are merely two visual
languages.
On the side, I should also note that of the two,
abstract art is the "honest" one; in other words, the
literal one. After all, part of the purpose of realism is to
fool the viewer into thinking that the artwork is real.
Abstract- art simply recognizes that the medium should
be a two-dimensional reality and not a three-dimen-sional
illusion.
To even begin to understand abstract art, it must be
understood that it deals with a reality that is not of the
physical world. The language of abstract art is that of
color, shape, texture, stroke, lines, value, intensity, etc...
Representational art also has these aspects, but an
abstraction distills them; it isolates these elements and
creates a different world. Naturally the question arises
as to how this different language can be understood. To
put it simply: it takes time. A piece of representational
or abstract art cannot be understood in a glance.
Don't misunderstand me; all art does not have a
meaning. Some art pieces are beautiful visual games
where the artist leads the viewer's eyes around and
through colors and shapes solely for pleasure. Other
artworks can be painful, spiritual struggles that are
ripped out of the artist's heart and placed self-conscious-ly
on a canvas or pedestal. In such manner the viewer
must struggle with art, and this is its beauty: to dis-cover
the mystery, to unravel the construction, to see
something in a new way, to find new meaning or simply
to enjoy the intricacy of color or shape. (Consider this in
comparison to much of "Christian art," where a stale
idea is stated in a safe, conventional way so as to he
understood through an economical expenditure of a few
seconds! It is sad, though, to consider the way in which
much of "Christian art" has sold out to the masses,
bowing to the demands for an easy-understand-easy-forget
art.
The viewer is not to be blamed. It is just that our
society conditions us to a transient and shallow art,
where all that is needed is a quick glance. A few
seconds of visual contact is all this distortion of art can
handle, and that is because there is nothing else to it. It's
shallowness can be comprehended in a mere glimpse,
and then it can be discarded. Another word commonly
used for things that are discarded is... junk.

Future studies course
to help students plan
From Our
compiled by Jay Russell
Bill Johnson will team teach a futures course next spring.
by Shari Goddard
What would Christians
do if a drug company made
a safe abortion pill? How
far should we allow gene-tic
management to go? How
should we plan our lives
with the depletion of nat-ural
resources? These are
a few of the issues a new
class at Bethel will attempt
to prepare students for in
the future.
Team-taught by Bill John-son
of the political science
department and David Lee,
associate professor of
speech-communication,
"Thinking in the Future
Tense" will explore the fu-ture.
Ironically, the class it-self
is a new innovation.
Open to juniors and sen-iors,
it will fit in as a bal-ance
course. Its 300-level
standing counts towards
the 15 upper-level courses
required for most students'
graduation.
Johnson hopes to draw
together students from all
concentrations. He said
Christians too often ignore
planning for the future.
They are either the "Hal
Lindsays with their view
of the future beginning
with the second coming,"
or they fatalistically leave
all planning in the Lord's
hands.
Johnson said Christians
are responsible for the
world until the Lord re-turns.
The two men will "gen-uinely
team-teach." Each
will take part in all class
sessions and look on the
class as a part of their own
learning. Johnson said that
will also allow students to
see the teachers arguing.
They hope to encourage
students to challenge oth-ers'
ideas.
The class is limited to
upperclassmen because, ac-cording
to Johnson, they
are more experienced in
asking questions and prob-ing
for answers.

competition
From the October 25, 1968
issue.
Nixon winner.
College editors from the
Associated Collegiate Press
predicted Richard Nixon
would win the 1968 presi-dential
election.
Seven per cent of the
nation's editors were sur-veyed
by the school of
journalism and mass com-munication
at the Univer-sity
of Minnesota. Of the
seven per cent, 91 per cent
predicted Nixon would win
the presidential race, al-though
only 50 per cent
said they would vote for
him. Hubert Humphrey re-ceived
37 per cent of the
vote, while George Wal-lace
and Dick Gregory re-ceived
one-and-a-half per
cent each. Ten per cent
were undecided.
Marion James Hall.
Junior Ralph Sheppard
presented a petition with
the names of more than
450 Bethel students to Vir-gil
Olson, dean of the col-lege.
The petition requested
that the new dorm on new
campus (now Nelson res-idence),
be named Marion
James Hall.
Sheppard spearheaded
the drive for the petition,
which honored "our de-parted
friend, Marion
James" (a student).
Dean Olson "cautioned
that 'we must take a com-posite
look at the new cam-pus
before naming parts.'
He pointed out that the
possibility of carrying over
names from the present
campus must be examined,
and that perhaps the pol-icy
of naming buildings
after people needs to be
carefully thought through."
IM bowling.
Bethel's first intramural
bowling competition began
in the fall of 1968, with
New Dorm taking the cham-pionship.
They beat their
opponent with a score of
2218 to 1753, in team corn-petition.
In the individual tour-nament,
student Cal Par-ent
won with a •score of
520 for three games. Steve
Smith took second with a
score of 509.

One of the team's goals
for this year is to finish

teams in the conference
this year, followed by us
and Concordia. We could
finish as high as third or
fourth," added Klostreich.

Library cubicle. 9:30 p.m. Paralyzed within a three-walled
world. Two overdue papers claw my mind. The
lure to loaf has lost its spell. I'm now bound by time to
my wooden nook. I glance at the clock.
Toxic smells from this cheap ink pen nauseate me. An
introduction paragraph lacking a thesis gets shoved
into the corner. My pen follows. Sweaty palms coast
down my thighs.
Tomorrow's reading assignment offers a nice retreat.
Pages 64-119. By page 66 I predict the rest to be dry.
Scanning speed: on. Key words and phrases flash like
city neons. Higher page numbers make me smile. Page
71, neck cramps. Book tilts to 45 degrees. I glance at the
clock.
Time lapse. The valley between my thumb and index
finger nestles up under my lower lip. Launching years
ahead I discover myself sitting at an outdoor cafe in
France. Gentle breeze. Mellow music. Suddenly I spy
an enchanting mate sitting alone at a distant table. My
heart throbs. Her eyes catch mine. An external ten-second
stare melts everything within me.
Like taking a cue in a play, I leave my seat and sit at
her table. Silence reigns. Our eyes speak infinitely more
eloquent than words could attempt. Like magnets in
slow motion we near each other's lips for a kiss. What
bliss. What? Page 75. The cold light and the perpetual
drone of the library heavens slap me back to reality. I
glance at the clock.
"Gotta go soon," I figure, "but gotta finish this read-ing.
Teacher might ask me a question. Hope not. Yet I
ought to get this stuff down. Teacher won't like me so
much if I don't. Gotta get this stuff down. I master the
last page of the two chapters required. "Got it down.
Gotta go."
Bounding down the gym steps I wave the bus to a
halt. Ah, an empty seat. Bit cold. Feels good. Across the
frosted window my middle finger melts an aimless
path. The clear parts cloud as my breath rolls out. I
notice that I've traced something like a dollar sign.
"Money," I say to myself as if to one beside me.
"That's right. Three-quarters of my education is paid by
loans. So where am I at? I'm studying to get good grades
to get a good degree to get a good enough job to pay off
my loans!" Another finger substitutes in for doodling.
"I feel locked into a cycle I can't escape. I can't even
take three courses, a healthy amount, without paying
for four. This full load I got makes all my studies suffer.
It makes me suffer. I'm sick of money.
I set my alarm for an hour earlier. Ahh, my bed. Best
fix I got to escape reality. And it's free. My body stills.
My mind races from the day's momentum. Mental
fragments dash round and round an endless track:
unfinished homework, unfulfilled passions and unre-solved
fears of what others may think about me. They
gnaw me to sleep. God help me. Dreams that night were
turbulent yet cathartic.

Healy orphanage shelters needy Filipino children
by Beth Stien
Corpus Christe is a pio-neer
venture in missions.
Better known to the Bethel
community as the "Healy
orphanage," this shelter
home for Filipino children
began in 1979 with a group
of seven people who felt a
special burden for the
needy children of Cebu
City, Cebu Island.
The Healys make it clear,
however, that Corpus
Christe is not "their" or-phanage.
"The Filipino chil-dren
are the name of the
game," said Jerry Healy,
professor in the English
department at Bethel. "The
staff at Corpus Christe
does not wish to be the
highlight of the operation,
what's important are the
kids," he said.
Yet the Healy family is
closely tied to the work at
Corpus Christe. Healy's
son Paul, a Bethel gradu-ate,
and daughter-in-law
Marlys are among the
seven who pioneered this
unique mission. Jerr.
serves as chairman of the
board of directors for the
DelAdwalwan Founda-tion,
a non-profit, fund-raising
organization
whose job is to raise mon-ey
for and support the
work at Corpus Christe.
Jerry's wife, Millie, their
daughter Liz (also a Bethel
graduate) and their son
Dave are all on the board
of directors. Dave, an in-structor
in the English de-partment,
and his wife
Nancy edit the bi-monthly
newsletter which DelAd-walwan
sends to its sup-porters.
The prime focus of this
mission, however, is in Ce-bu
City. The seven-mem-ber
staff lives in one four-bedroom
house and at the
present time cares for four
children. These children
range in age from a few
days to seven years, and
require 24-hour care.
A child stays at the shel-ter
home anywhere from
one to eight months. "Al-most
all the children they
get are sick and usually

Two or three students
almost always wait out-side
Scott Wallace's office
door, with another stu-dent
inside his office. Ear-ly
in the semester, Wallace
told his accounting class,
"If you have trouble with
your accounting problems
or anything else, come to
my office. That's why I
have office hours. And I
mean that."
When students enter
Wallace's office, they see
two items that Wallace
invariably points out. One
is a poster that says, "If it
was easy, anyone could do
it." The other is a Phila-delphia
Phillies baseball
cap.
Wallace is originally
from Philadelphia, which
explains his non-Minne-sota
accent. It also ex-plains
why he brought his
red Phillies cap to class
and hung it over the lamp
of the overhead projector
as if it were a Phillies
mascot.
Wallace is good-natured
and likes to tease his stu-dent
s (always with a
smile on his face) about
almost anything—whe-ther
they are Kansas City
Royals fans or whether
they should receive extra
points for bringing him cof-fee
in his morning classes.
That's his way of showing
that he cares about his
students. And even
though each of his Ac-counting
I classes number

said Jerry Healy.
"They typically come mal-nourished,
with tubercu-losis
or skabies (a skin
disease), and the home
gives them medical treat-ment,"
he said.
over 50 students, he knew
each class member by
name after the first few
weeks of the semester.
Wallace is a hard work-er,
which explains the
reason for the poster in his
office. He not only is a
full-time teacher, but he is
also a full-time owner of
an accounting firm—the
W. Scott Wallace account-ing
firm. As if that were
not enough, he teaches a
night course for certified
life underwriters (specia-lized
insurance people).
He is also married and a
father of two daughters,
one of whom is a fresh-man
at Bethel.

After their stay at Cor-pus
Christe, some children
are adopted, some are re-turned
to their parents and
some are sent to other in-stitutions.
Corpus Christe has an-other
ministry in addition
to him because he is out of
bed every day at 5 a.m.
Wallace says of his sche-dule,
"I know I am busy.
But if I had extra time, I'd
waste it."
Wallace received his
B.S. degree in economics
from Franklin Marshall
College in Lancaster, Penn-sylvania,
where he also
played varsity football for
four years. He was certi-fied
as a certified public
accountant and moved
from Philadelphia to Del-aware
to work as an ac-countant.
After only five years,
Wallace became a pail net'
in the accounting firm.
This was also the time he
rededicated his life to the
Lord. Soon after, he began
to the shelter home. The
staff ministers to the chil-dren
and mothers in sev-eral
"squatters' villages"
within the city. This in-volves

see page 10
to look for full-time Chris-tian
work where he could
use his accounting skills.
It wasn't until 1976 that
Wallace received a phone
call from a Christian bus-inessman
in Denver, Colo-rado.
He wanted Wallace
to come to Minnesota to
help establish an office in
St. Paul. Wallace came
and two years later,
bought out the company
he now owns.
Wallace said that last
year he was led by the
Lad and coaxed by Steve
Simpson to teach at Be-thel.
He said that he likes
teaching at Bethel and en-joys
the fellowship he has
with both students and
faculty. His biggest sur-prise
about Bohol how-ever,
is I he LW: He rails it

As a teacher, Wallace
said he has a "bigger com-mitment

music itself carries a very
strong message. If Chris-tian
lyrics are added to it,
they are incongruous, be-cause
the music conveys
one message and the words
another." But Leafblad
says the church should gen-erate
new music of its own,
and laments the fact that
most of the material in our
hymnals was written be-fore
the twentieth century.
Leafblad's wife, June, is
also a Bethel graduate.
They have two children,
twins, Stewart and Steph-anie,
nine.
Leafblad said he will
have to go back to Minne-sota-
types of recreation.
"In California I was a beach
bum, a desert rat, and I
loved the mountains," he
said. But he is looking for-ward
to fishing and water
skiing here in his native
state, when his busy sche-dule
and the season per-mit.
Hard work accounts for Wallace's success
Conceptual artist Richard Cooper creates a visual effect in Bethel's art gallery by placing

than other physical forms of art. (photos by Doug Barkey and Dan Velie).

Artist builds
unique work
for gallery
by Randy Pate
Richard Cooper, a con-ceptual
artist, staged an
exhibition Tuesday, Nov.
11. He showed slides of
his previous work and dis-played
his new project
created exclusively for the
Bethel Art Gallery. Stu-dents
Don Nelson and Paul-ine
Newburgh collaborated
in setting up the project.
The closing for his display
will be Nov. 21, from 7-9
p.m.

"His display will seem
very strange to our con-servative
Bethel students,"
said Dale Johnson, asso-ciate
professor of art. Con-ceptual
art deals with
ideas and concepts unlike
paintings, sculptures, or
other physical forms of
art. Cooper makes the
space itself a piece of art
by placing objects in it to
give a different visual ef-fect
to each person who
sees it.
In addition to his dis-play,
Cooper will be work-ing
in December with cho-reographer
Sage Cowles
to produce a show entitled
"Shuffle and Click".
Cowles' job will be to fill
the space created by Coo-per
with bodies. She will
randomly select viewers
from the audience to come
down and with guidance
enter into the show.
The title of "Shuffle and
Click" comes from the six
slide projectors which
throughout the show will
be flashing various pic-tures
that are supposed to
give the audience a float-ing
effect.
The production is being
made possible by a $4,000
grant from the Jerome Foun-da
lion to the, general
school fund. The project's
total cost will amount to
$7,245 of which Bethel will
have to pay $3,245. There
will be showings on Dec.
8, at 7 and 8:30 p.m.
The show will then travel
to the Walker Art Center
followed by a tour of the
state.
Cooper is a member of
the Glen Hanson Art Gal-lery
in Minneapolis. He
received his master's of
Fine Arts in sculpture from
Washington University in
SI. Louis, Missouri in 1973.
He was also an instructor
al the Minneapolis College
Of Art and Design in 1979.

Bruce Leafblad, a former
Bethel student, after sev-eral
years absence, has re-turned
as a professor.
Leafblad graduated from
Bethel College in 1962, ma-joring
in music and spe-cializing
in voice. He grad-uated
from Bethel semin-ary
in 1966.
In 1979 Ledblad was
chosen Bethel Alumnus of
the Year, an award deter-mined
on the basis of the
student's life after gradua-tion.
Leafblad spent most of
his years since his gradua-tion
as one of the pastors
at Lake Avenue Con-gregational
Church in Pasa-dena,
California. He was
in charge of all music min-istries
for the large church,
a job allowing little time
for singing, but requiring
much conducting.
Leafblad also earned a
doctorate in church music
at the University of Sou-thern
California.
A couple of years ago
Leafblad began feeling that
his ministry at the Lake
Avenue church was com-ing
to an end. Soon after
that he received requests
from six different colleges
offering him teaching posi-tions,
one of them Bethel.
Leafblad decided God
wanted him at Bethel. He
is now an associate pro-fessor
of church music and
worship. Leafblad says the
department is breaking
new ground, because this
is the only church music
program in the country
which involves both a col-lege
and a seminary.
Leafblad is excited about
his work and certain that
this is where God wants
him. He likes his students
and feels he communicates
well with them.
The most striking change
in Bethel for Leafblad since
he was a student here is
the way it has grown. "The
college used to have only
about 500 students. Now
there are almost that many
in the seminary," he said.
Leafblad sees a "freshness
and openness" and a "great-er
zeal to integrate faith
and learning" than when
he attended in the early
'60s. He said there is "more
diversity in students," a
"greater blend, which en-riches
life at Bethel."
Leafblad was asked
what he thinks about us-ing

Sue Fahrenkamp
Susan Ogden-Malouf,
new assistant professor of
theatre arts, joined. the
Bethel theatre arts staff
after finishing her docto-rate
at Northwestern Uni-versity
in theatre arts
last August. Ogden-Ma-louf
was attracted to
Bethel because it is a
Christian College. She en-joys
the Christian atmos-phere
and the interaction
the students have with the
faculty.
Ogden-Malouf set a goal
to help students at Bethel
learn. She would also like
to assist the development
of Christian theatre. A
particular interest is the
exploration. of ritual or
worship theatre.' She en-joys
theatre because, "It is
a primary experience. It is
very powerful."
Ogden-Malouf began act-ing
as a senior in high
school. "I fell in love with
it," she reminisced. She
received a lot of encour-agement
from instructors.
While attending Stanford
University, she also did
some acting.
After directing a dorm
play her sophomore year,
Ogden-Malouf discovered
her talent for directing.
Without a great deal of
acting experience, she be-gan
to direct more plays
throughout college.
After graduating from
Stanford, Ogden-Malouf at-tended
Northwestern Uni-versity,
earning her mas-ter's
degree and doctorate
in theatre arts. While at
Northwestern, she took'
many directing classes.
The highlight of Ogden-
Malouf's college career in
directing was her senior
year at Stanford. An or-ganization
called Ram's
Head put on an annual
musical. The organization
eventually died out. Og-den-
Malouf resurrected
the organization and di-rected
the musical.
Ogden-Malouf teaches
creative performance,
theatre history, and words
and ideas. During the
spring, she will direct
"The Madwoman of Chail-lot,"
a satire on capitalism.
Ogden-Malouf is mar-ried
to Jeff Ogden, part
time instructor of account-ing
at Bethel. During their
free time, they enjoy tennis
and a variety of other
sports.

Ex-faculty face life after Bethel
John Piper, former associate professor of biblical studies,
has now become senior pastor at Bethlehem Baptist Church.
by Ginger Hope
Leaving Bethel to begin
a new life is usually asso-ciated
with graduating stu-dents,
but some professors
also face this challenge.
Eight members of last
year's faculty have moved
to new situations this year-some
across the country,
or across the state, across
town, or just across cam-pus.
Two former faculty mem-bers
have switched to pas-toral
roles. John Piper, for-merly
an associate profes-
Hodgson specializes in
tricks that are easy to trans-port.
He has used assist-ants
and lots of props, but
found it to be impractical.
Hodgson practices every
effect until he is comfor-table
with it. Then he
thinks about how it can be
performed creatively. He
sor in biblical studies, is
now senior pastor at Beth-lehem
Baptist Church,
Mpls.
Philip Sackett, former
associate professor of chem-istry,
has taken a church
in Milaca, Minn. He is offi-cially
on a one-year leave
of absence, "trying to de-termine
if the Lord is lead-ing
him to be a pastor or a
professor," said Dean
George Brushaber.
,Wayne Fri tchie, who was
an instructor in music, has
gone into business in the
Twin Cities area.
also adapts the tricks to
the audience and the set-ting.
Hodgson said he takes
magic lighter that some
other magicians. He would
like to perform for groups
that need him. "I just want
to be used," he said smil-ing.
Two of last year's facul-ty
are over-the-hill—at the
seminary. Robert Stein, for-mer
professor of biblical
st udies, and John Sailha-mer,
once an assistant pro-fessor
in biblical studies,
now teach at the semin-ary.
Da vid Bausch and Charles
"Chub" Reynolds now
hold teaching positions in
our schools. Rausch, for-mer
assistant professor in
history and geography,
now teaches in Ashland
care for the children, bring-ing
them food and cloth-ing
and instructing moth-ers
how to better care for
their children.
Jerry and Millie Healy
went to Cebu City for a
month this past summer
to visit the home and see
Corpus Christe in action.
Both came away "thorough-ly
convinced of the need
for the work," he said.
Corpus Christe is pre-sently
below the eight-chil-dren
capacity. Ideally, the
mission would like to get
more children. They own
nine acres of land south of
Cebu City, as well as the
house, and have future
plans to build on the prop-erty.
They would keep the
house in Cebu as quaran-tine
quarters, but need 12-
15 children before such an
operation can take place.
Ruth Oliver, a junior at
Bethel, went to Corpus
Christe under SMP this
summer. She was impressed
by the boldness of these
young people to venture
out on their own and begin
such a unique ministry. "I
am really impressed with
the lifestyle these people
have taken on," said Oli-ver.
"They have set up a
new system and ministry
in another culture. This is
very difficult to start from
scratch, as they have done.
They've moved out in such
faith, and are doing an
excellent job."
Oliver became familiar
with the home through
Central Baptist Church,
where the Healys attend.
When she found out Cor-pus
Christe had a need for
extra help this summer,
she took the opportunity
to go under SMP.
"The orphanage opened
my eyes to a type of ser-vice
ministry that a lot of
people, including myself,
don't realize exists," said
Oliver.
Theological Seminary in
Ohio. Reynolds, former as-sistant
professor in physi-cal
education and head foot-ball
coach is teaching and
coaching in Northwestern
College in Roseville.
The only faculty mem-ber
to retire last year was
Junet Runbeck, professor
in education. Two more
faculty members plan to
retire after this semester:
Olaf Olsen, professor in
history; and C. Howard
Smith, professor in music.
An elementary educa-tion
major, Oliver feels a
strong pull to return next
summer and focus on edu-cation.
She foresees a
move there permanently
after graduation. "I'd like
to teach in a Christian or
private school for Filipino
children. They have such
a great need, materially as
well as spiritually," she
said. She sees the focus on
practical application of ag-riculture
programs and nu-trition
important to such
teaching.
Bethel students can do
many things to involve
themselves in the Corpus
Christe ministry:
-Receive the newsletter,
which comes every other
month. Read it and stay
informed.
-Support the mission
through letters. Write the

It's magical, it's myste-rious,
and yet, it's a minis-try.
Magician Joel Hodg-son
uses his talent for ma-gic
as "a vehicle for spread-ing
the gospel."
Hodgson, a junior at Be-thel
College, performs ma-gic
as a ministry. When on
stage, he allows the aud-ience
to feel comfortable
with his humor and his
tricks. Then he shares
something pertinent. At
the end of his show, he
will share his testimony.
Hodgson, now 20, began
his career in seventh grade.
He began as a ventrilo-quist,
after graduating
from a 30-lesson course. "I
did it for attention," he
admitted.
After seventh grade,
Hodgson met a friend at
Bible camp who introduced
him to magic. He imme-diately
was intrigued by
the fun and challenge of it.
The friend put Hodgson in
touch with a magician's
club.
In eighth grade, Hodg-son
started doing birthday
party shows that combined
ventriloquism and magic.
While he was in high
school, demand had grown
to one or more shows a
week.
Hodgson has performed
at banquets, talent shows
and spent two summers
doing magic at a local res-taurant.
Hodgson did a
Christmas special twice
for local television in Green
Bay, Wisc., where he grew
up.
He still does shows
while in college. He has
performed at Christian cof-feeshops
and fronted for
some. Christian rock and

Hodgson wants his aud-ience
to know that the ma-gic
performed is just sim-ple

to be fun," said Hodgson.

This is the first of a two
part series on Bethel bas-ketball:
this week a look at
last year's "runnin' Roy-als",
the most successful
team in Bethel history.
Some people wondered
how long it would take
Head Coach George Palke
to rejuvenate the basket-ball
program at Bethel.
There was no denying he
had a good nucleus to
work with in his first year
as the Royal mentor. At
guard, seniors Dave Blan-chard
and Torn Weko re-turned
from the year be-fore.
Wingmen Gary and
Greg Edlund transferred
in from a junior college in
California. Veterans Rey
Miller and Scott Wilson
solidified the post posi-tion.
Add Jason Velgers-dyk,
the 6'-7" freshman
from Edina and you can
see why Bethel fans were
smiling.
The season started out
in normal fashion as the
Royals buried the alumni
and then topped Concordia-
St. Paul for Coach Palke's
debut victory. It looked
like the beginning of a ser-ies
but the Royals blew a
17-point lead in the next
game at Superior, losing
87-86.
The team then went out
west for two games, beat-ing
Rocky Mountain Col-lege
after losing to Eastern
Montana. The Royals then
returned home and whip-by
Brad Nauman
Bethel wrestling coach
Dave Klostreich said that
despite his team's youth
and inexperience, it should
do fairly well and could
place as high as third in
the MIAC conference.
The team is led this year
by co-captains Greg Wid-mer
and Greg Heinsch and
veterans Russ Reynolds
and Mike Anderson.
Following is a weight-by-
weight preview of the
1980-81 Royal Wrestling
team:
118—The battle for this
spot will be between fresh-men
Don Lint from Cadil-lac,
Mich., and Sean Joyce
of St. Paul, Minn.
126—Sophomore Russ
Reynolds, who placed
fourth in the conference
last year at 118, is moving
up to 126 this year. He will
be challenging incumbent
ped St. Thomas in the con-ference
opener 89-70. Five
Bethel players hit double
figures, a feat that would
happen several times dur-ing
the season.
Next stop for the cagers
was Chicago and the Trin-ity
tournament. The Roy-als
took home the first-place
hardware with easy
victories over Northwest-ern
and. Trinity. Skeptics
were starting to believe as
the Royals record went to
5-2.
The next five games,
however, probably made
them doubt. Crippled with
injuries, the Royals beat
only St. Olaf at the Augs-burg
invitational. They
lost to Northwestern and
St. Thomas, both of whom
they had already defeated
soundly.
The Royal five then re-sumed
the long conference
haul against Augsburg
and St. John's. Playing at
home against the Auggies,
the slumping Royals
looked tight, losing 73-45.
It was the same story at
Collegeville as their rec-ord
dropped to 6-6 with
the 81-60 defeat.
And then it happened.
As if they suddenly real-ized
their potential, the
Royals came on like gang-busters.
The first victim
was Macalester. Scoring
65 points in the first half,
the Royals decimated the
Scots 114-84. Excitement

from Iowa City, Iowa. Also

134—Co- ca p t a in Greg
Widmer from Washington,
Iowa, has held down this
weight for the last two
years. This year his com-petition
will come from
sophomore Steve Solstad
from Jackson, Minn.; fresh-man
Joe Yaklich from Hib-bing,
Minn.; and freshman
Rich Reynolds from St.
Paul, Minn., who could
wrestle at either 134 or
142.
142— Junior Wayne
Reeves from Fridley,
Minn., or freshman Brett
Moller from Kiron, Iowa,
will hold down this spot
this year. They could be
challenged by Rich Rey-nolds
if he does not com-pete
at 134.
swept throught the cam-pus
as if a gold rush were
taking place.
Fired up by big Steve
"Hoss" Carrigan and the
rest of the team, during
the unique Sweet Georgia
Brown warmup, the fans
began packing out the Rob-ertson
P.E. Center. On the
road Royal fans outdrew
at least three other schools.
As the blue and gold
rolled on, names and num-bers
became blurred. St.
Mary's by nine, St. Olaf
by six, Hamline, Concor-dia,
Gustavus in overtime.
Suddenly, the Royals
found themselves in a
chase for the playoffs. If
they could win their next
two games they would be
in second place in the
MIAC.
Alas, it was not to be.
Perhaps looking ahead
to the big match-up
against St. John's, the Beth-el
cagers were upset by St.
Thomas 73-66. To make
matters worse, after lead-ing
the Johnnies most of
the way, center John Eisen-schenk
hit an 18-footer
with two seconds left
stunning the Royal fans
with the 63-61 defeat.
After that crushing loss
with play-off hopes almost
certainly dashed, the team
could have given up. They
did not. The best was yet
to come. The next oppo-nent
was Augsburg: 20-0,
third-ranked-in-the-na-
150—Co -captain Greg
Heinsch from Faribault,
Minn., will be challenged
by freshman Doug John-son

Wash.
158—Either sophomore
Ben McEachern from Ma-ple
Plain, Minn., or Dave
"Igor" Steeves from Nee-nah,
Wisc., will go at 158
this year.

tion Augsburg. The game
was not even close. All the
major area newspapers
had Royal headlines on
the 90-74, "Bethel hands
Augsburg 1st loss." The
program had arrived.
Five more victories came
in a row before Gustavus
ended Bethel's season with
a 79-75 loss. The team
played a little flat against
the Gusties, possibly be-cause
they had just found
out that, win or lose, they
did not have a playoff invi-tation.
The long, exciting sea-son
had finally ended. The
tale of the tape read: 18-9
overall record, 13-5 and
third place in the confer-ence
(12 wins of their last
15 games), 12 new team
records, including most
wins, and 10 new individ-ual
records. Three players,
Blanchard, Miller and Wil-son,
were named all-confer-ence:

returns for her third
year as manager.
The first game is Decem-ber

The first home game is
December 9, against Con-cordia,

LaRock is optimistic
about the team. "There's a
lot of good, young talent.
There's a depth that we
haven't had in the past."
There is a full junior var-sity
this season so there
will be "good playing
time," says LaRock.
"We're looking to run a
faster game....We're work-ing
on the defense. We will
need to learn to read the
defense and play them,"
said LaRock.
The team has good
height this year, with six
of the women being over
5'10", one of them fresh-man
Keri Deboer. There
are many promising fresh-men
this year, LaRock said.
"We have good, quick
freshmen guards."
Right now, the team is
still looking at people and
working with skills. "We
are battling with small,
nagging injuries," says La-
Rock. With an 11-10 rec-ord
from last year, she
sees potential in the team.
The team has four
games planned before
Christmas break. This is a
lighter schedule than last
year when they had six. A
major trip is planned for
the end of interim to
Wheaton, Ill. The team will
play three other schools in
a Christian College tourna-ment.

The women's volleyball
team tied for fourth place
after losing to Macalester
15-3, 15-3 last weekend at
the state volleyball tour-nament.
Friday's tournament ac-tion
left the Royals with a
4-6 record and a place in
the play-off's held Sat-urday.
Bethel earned the
place by achieving a high-.
er number of total points
than Winona who also had
a 4-6 record after Friday's
play.
Merry Olmstead com-mented,
"We played well;
it was a good way to end
the season."
Joy Sorenson reflected,
"We were happy to get
into the play-offs on Sat-urday.
The team who took
first (Macalester) beat us.
I'm proud of the team; we
did a real good job this
season. We came further
this year than ever before."
Team co-captain JoAnn
Griffin said, "I think we
finished the season reason-ably
well. I was disappoint-ed
with the way it ended,
losing to Mac, but we had
a good season overall."
Friday the Royals defeat-ed
Gustavus twice, lost
two to St. Kates, split with
Morris, 15-9, and 11-15,
lost two to Moorhead and
split with Dr. Martin Lu-ther
College, 15-4 and 16-

Bethel was part of a three-way
tie for fifth place with
St. Mary's and Concordia-

New Bethel trainer, Neal
Dutton, is currently fulfil-ling
a goal that he has had
for a long time. "One of my
goals was to be a trainer at
the collegiate level, and
I'm really enjoying my-self,"
said Dutton.
Dutton also hopes to im-plement
a complete stu-dent
trainer program. He
currently has two students,
Brad Kroulik and Deb
Sension, working with him
but he would like to get
more students involved.
"Brad and Deb really do a
good job," said Dutton. "I
would like to get more
student trainers involved
and really get a good pro-gram
going," he continued.
Dutton earned his bach-elor's
degree from Eastern
Washington University
where he majored in phys-ical
education, with an ath-letic
training emphasis.
He went on to South
Dakota State University
where he received his mas-ter's
degree. While study-ing
at South Dakota State,
he served as graduate as-sistant
trainer and assist-ant
basketball coach.
Dutton learned of the
Bethel opening from the
head trainer at SDSU. To
him this meant a chance to
fulfill his goal of being a
full-time trainer on the col-legiate
level. He applied
and was offered the job.
Dutton is very impressed
with the Bethel commun-ity.
"There is more empha-sis
on Christianity and
more commitment to the
Lord than I expected," said
Dutton.

The Royals gridders end-ed
their season on a sour
note last Saturday with a
42-23 loss to Augsburg.
The Auggies scored early
and often, and a late rally
by Bethel was not enough
to catch them.
The Auggies took the
advantage on the first play
of the game, returning the
opening kickoff 92 yards
for a touchdown. The Roy-als
could not move the ball
on offense and had to punt.
Aided by a 34-yard run,
the Auggies moved in to
score, the last yard corn-ing
on a quarterback sneak
by Steve Yeazle, giving
Augsburg a 14-0 lead.
In the second quarter,
the Auggies scored again
to take a 21-0 lead 'before
Bethel finally got on the
scoreboard. The big play
in the Bethel drive was a
65-yard run by Brad Flater,
bringing the ball down to
the 15-yard line. Jim An-erstrom
threw a pass to
Pete Kramka in the end
zone but the play was nul-lified
by a penalty against
the Royals.
Anderstrom was sacked
on the next play, and it
looked like the Royals
were out of scoring range.
But a screen to Fla ter
brought, the ball back to
the 10-yard line. On fourth
down, Anderstrom hit Ken
Cooper for a touchdown to
bring the score to 21-7.
The Auggies brought the
ball downfield again, aid-ed
by a pass-interference
penalty against the Roy-als.
A four-yard touch-down
run gave Augsburg
a 28-7 halftime lead.
The Royals missed a
good scoring opportunity
early in the second half.
Doug Hill ran for 40 yards
down to the Augsburg 19-
yard line. But Anderstrom's
fourth down pass to Kram-ka
was deflected at the'
five-yard line.
The Auggies went down
the field again, the big
plays being two passes:
one for 15 and one for 20
yards. Halfback Joe Roth
scored his third touchdown
of the game, lifting the
Auggies' lead to 35-7. Augs-burg
upped their score to
42-7 on a three-yard run
by Yeazle after the Aug-gies
had used a fake field
goal on fourth down for a
first down.
Bethel scored twice in
the last seven minutes of
the game. The first touch-down
on a four-yard pass
from Anderstrom to Brian
Johnson. Anderstrom ran
for a two-point conversion
to make the score 42-15,
Augsburg. The Royals' last
touchdown of the season
came on a six-yard pass
from Anderstrom to Kram-ka.
Anderstrom ran again
for two points to make the
final score Augsburg 42,
Bethel 23.
This was the last game for
nine Royal seniors. They
are co-captains Paul Carl-son
and Jim Anderstrom,
Scott Engstrom, Paul Lind-berg,
Dave Moberg, Bob
Goebel, Rich Graves, Kelly
"Bando" Brandes and Mark

Bethel's hockey team be-gins
its season with an
away game against Eau
Claire Nov. 22. Tonight
they play a pre-season
game against alumni at
Columbia Arena. The team
and coaches said that they
are looking forward to this
season with their first full-time
coach and a new,-
young team. "We're going
to have a little more depth
than in the past," said
Steve Kettelkamp, senior
forward.
When Coach Dahl was
asked what the team's
strengths were, he said,
"None. No, our strength
has been in our enthusi-asm
and our willingness
to work hard." He pointed
out that the youth of the
team, 34 members with
only three seniors and 20
freshmen and transfers,
hold promise for the corn-ing
years.
Kevin Hadlich, a team
captain, said that there is
a positive attitude among
the team and the coaches
and a "new commitment
toward God from the play-ers."
Dahl said, "My philoso-phy
is a little different
from most athletic philos-ophies:
Strive to play to
your best ability with real
inner motivation. I believe
that that's what God
wants. When you become
motivated internally, then
things happen."
Dahl down-plays the vio-lence
of hockey. "I've played
both hockey and foot-ball
and I think football is
the more violent." He hopes
to train the Bethel team
along European standards,
with an emphasis on grace,
strength and intelligence,
rather than brute strength.
The MIAC rules state
that fighting will lead to a
forfeit of two games by a
player. Dahl stretched that
ban to three games for any
Bethel student who starts
a fight.
The team started prac-ticing
earlier this year than
in past years. They began
off-ice training at the be-ginning
of the school year
and started skating a
month ago. All home
games will be played at
Columbia Arena.
"We're optimistic," Ket-telkamp
said. "Craig Dahl
is going to pull the team
together."

Bethel's forensics team
has been competing in
speaking and debate tour-naments
almost every
weekend this semester. Al-though
Bethel is a relative-ly
small school, the team,
a co-curricular extention
of the speech-communica-tion
department, is doing
very well.
Last weekend, Nov. 7 - 8,
Bethel competed in the
first annual Cross Exami-nation
Debate Association
(CEDA) Invitational at the
University of Wisconsin-
LaCrosse. Bethel placed sec-ond
in the debate tourna-ment,
with Beth Neufeld
and Mark Publow partic-ipating.
Bethel took four
of the sixteen teams in the
competition.
Coach Butch Maltby
said that all the teams did

of the people from Bethel
had very little debate ex-perience.

this event the speaker re-ceives
an unknown topic
and has seven minutes for
both preparation and speak-ing
on that topic. Rick

Receiving credit for a
class or becoming exempt
from one appeals to most
students. Advanced Place-ment
tests, College Level
Examination Program
(CLEP) tests and Bethel
department tests are three
ways that students can
receive exemption or cre-dit
for courses.
The Advanced Place-ment

Examination Board
schools, he said.
Each Bethel department
involved decides exemp-tions
and credits to be re-ceived.
A fee is charged
when the rest of the test is
taken.
CLEP tests are also ta-ken
for college credit. Ac-cording
to Finlay, primar-ily
post-secondary people
'take them. "They take the
exams to get credit for
their knowledge," said Fin-lay.
The tests, developed
by the Educational Test-ing
Service, can give a stu-dent
credit for a basic
course.
There are two types of
CLEP examinations. With
a general examination,
which contains five basic
areas, a student can re-ceive
up to six semester
credits at Bethel for each
exam on which she scores
at or above the 50th nation-al
percentile.
The subject examina-tions
measure achievement
in specific college course
areas. Students may re-ceive
three semester cred-its
for each examination
covering the material equi-valent
to one semester's
work, providing the score's
at or above the 50th per-centile.
The department
again determines the cre-dit
a student may receive
for a subject test.
A course taken at Bethel
is worth four semester cre-dits.
The maximum num-ber
of CLEP credits a stu-dent
can apply to a degree
is 30.
Credits earned by this
type of examination do not
affect a grade point aver-age.
Transcripts state that
the person has successful-ly
completed the exam for
the designated area and
how many credits were
accepted.
Some departments at Be-thel
give tests at the be-ginning
of the year to de-termine
the appropriate
class level for students.
Through these tests also,
top-scoring students may
apply for exemption from
a basic level class.
To receive credit for a
course not available
through CLEP or Advanced
Placement, the student
should contact the depart-ment
chairman. Each de-partment

editorial
When we choose Bethel,
we choose 'lifestyle' too
Some issues allow for exaggerated coverage in the
press. Other issues are only minimally suited to long
expositions. The lifestyle at Bethel, ideally, should fall
into the latter category, but unfortunately, finds itself
stretched out of proportion all too many times.
Bethel lifestyle is a fact of life on this campus. What-ever
grumbling may go on about its demands on "free-dom,"
there can be no denying that each person who
accepts admission onto this campus accepts the pre-cepts
of the Bethel lifestyle. The choice belongs to the
individual.
Last week's editorial dealt with the possibility of
students being required to resign the lifestyle statement
at the beginning of each semester. The point raised was
valid, asking only that we be given the benefit of any
possible doubt, and be treated like the young adults we
are. Our word is to be valued—give us credit for that.
Now the question, "why all the commotion?" We
asked for it, and now we've got it. Bethel didn't force us
to come here. There are many other fine educational
institutions that set forth no such "code" to live by. We
have a choice.
People on every level at Bethel are confronted with
the lifestyle statement when they want to join the
community. The statement itself says that the lifestyle
is "intended for our community life." The standards are
not set up for all Christians. It was drawn up, approved
and voted on by the Board of Regents for this commun-ity
and none other. Janitors, secretaries, professors,
cooks—even the president of the college—sign the
statement. Students are not the sole recipients of the
confines of the lifestyle.
We are a free people. We have the right to question,
petition, complain and work for change or adjustment.
There may be parts of the lifestyle that seem rigid and
tough to live by, especially in today's society. There
may be parts that sound old-fashioned. But Bethel does
not deny that it is a tradition. It is a tradition that has
been determined by to what is "necessary to build a
Christian community."
Once we are here we are hound. Working to change
the lifestyle from within serves only to weaken the
foundation on which the community has been building
for many years. We are not in a position to tear down a
tradition.
We have asked that our word be valued, trusted and
respected. Bethel asks that we value, trust, respect and
uphold its tradition.

Anderson works toward unity
An open letter to John B.
Anderson
Dear John:
Congratulations on stick-ing
to your guns right
through to the end. Those
who said, "He'll give up,"
are whistling a different
tune.
Two themes run through
the deep structures of Rea-gan
rhetoric. One of them,
the "horizontal theme," fo-cuses
on the past-present
of our nation and says,
"the best future is one in
which life is as much like
the mythologized past as
possible."
The other, the "vertical
theme," focuses on the na-tion
and its boundaries and
says, "the best condition is
one in which the rest of
the human community
serves our national pur-poses."
Should this analysis be
borne out in a Reagan ad-ministration
oriented to na-tional
past, not global fu-ture,
and should the pre-sent
technological gap be-tween
ourselves and the
under-developed become a
more critical global issue,
and should our present un-fair
advantage in exploit-ing
the earth's resources
be called into question in
the court of world opinion,
you and Jerry Brown may
•find yourselves in a fight
to the finish between Rea-gan
on the right and Mon-dale/
Kennedy on the left.
If you should decide to
continue your effort to-ward
national unity, in a
third party or under ano-ther
umbrella, you must
take a case for a global
future in which the United
States cooperates with

Dear Editor:
In the Oct. 31 issue of

other nations to close the
technological gap and man-age
global resources.
There is no future but a
global one. There is no jus-tification
for maintaining
or increasing the techno-logical
gap. There is no
moral right to use our tech-nological
competence to
consume more than our
fair share of the earth's
resources.
I suggest that this case
is more broadly accepta-ble
on a global and nation-al
scale and more authen-tically
Christian and broad-ly
humanitarian than the
case for a national future
that competes for the
world's limited resources
with a gigantic technolog-ical
head start.
More than any of the
other voices heard in the
campaign just ended, yours
seemed to be reaching for
just such a case. I wish
you well in formulating it,
articulating it, sharing it
and defending it. I pledge
my continued support.
Your friend,
Donald N. Larson
Dear Editor,
One aspect of Bethel per-iodically
nauseates me: the
the misused affluence of
our community.
A lot of money is repre-sented
at Bethel, which
itself is not wrong. The
nauseating part is that this
money is spent, I think, on
the over-extravagant ma-terial
things.
Walking past the circle
parking lot I see Cadillacs,
foreign sports cars, vans—
all sorts of 1980-model
cars.
Walking into class I see
leather coats, designer
jeans, expensive watches
and jewelry.
Walking through the PE
building I see Nikes, Pu-mas,
name-brand racquet-ball
racquets and balls and
special carrying bags for
them.
In winter, famous-name
skis and poles, ski boots
and ski outfits abound.
Granted, finances are
"tight" for some at Bethel.
But the point is, shouldn't
we all (students, faculty,
administrators) spend/use
our money more "wisely"?
Use it less on new cars
and expensive clothes and
name-brand sports equip-ment
and more on people
who need food, medical
care and shelter?
"Stewardship" grates on
most everyone's nerves.
We all sit through ser-mons,
chapels and prayer-and-
shares about it. Per-haps
we should try it in-stead
of talking about it.
Instead of buying that new
improved racquetball rac-quet
or that cashmere
sweater, we should sent
the money to -World Vis-ion,
CARE or some other
charity.

"They want us to come,"
stressed Paul Nethercott
upon his return from the
International Student Con-sultation
on Frontier Mis-sions.
He was referring to
the countries represented
at the consultation that
are primarily unreach-ed
by Christian ministries.
The consultation, held
in Edinburgh, Scotland,
was the first time that non-
Western and Western
mission board leaders
came together. The watch-word
for the consultation
was "A church for every
people by the year 2000."
"There are many strong

tied for 29th place in this
competition.
That same weekend Phil-ip
Rohier took six stu-dents
to the Twin Cities
Forensics League compe-tition.
Rohier said most of
these students in this com-petition
had little or no
experience beforehand. "In
my analysis of the tour-nament
we did very well.
We placed fourth and for
some of these people it
was their first experience.
They said on the way home
they felt they had learned
something about them-selves."
Seventeen schools par-ticipated
in this tourna-ment.
According to Rohier,
"Bethel is viewed as a
strong contender in every
tournament we attend."
The Omaha Invitational
Individual Events Tourna-ment
at the University of
Nebraska was Bethel's chal-lenge
for Oct. 16-18. In
this competition. Bethel
placed seventh overall,

Nethercott, a '79 Bethel

he said.
The goal of the consul-tation
was "to seethe in-digenous
mission socie-ties
work along with the
Western mission societies
in expanding these fronti-ers
and expanding the vis-ion,"
said Nethercott. The
focus on frontier missions
refers to places without
missionaries and church-es.
Nethercott said the con-sultation
was the begin-ning
of a student move-ment
similar to that of the
1920's and 30's. He said
the consultation was call-ed
specifically to mobilize

squad of 5-7 students.
Many schools' teams are
larger, 10-15 students.
Placement is based on
points earned by individ-ual

students usually compete

they obviously have the
highest potential.
About nine students at
the consultation represent-ing
the different areas of
the world met after much
prayer, said Nethercott.
They developed this pledge:
"By the grace of God, and
for His glory, I commit my
entire life to obeying His
commission of Matt. 28:18-
20wherever and however
He leads me, giving prior-ity
to the peoples current-ly
beyond the reach of the
Gospel (Rom. 15:20-21). I
will also endeavor to im-part
this vision to others."
Exposure to the world
situation concerning fron-tier
missions and an open-ness
to God's plan are what
Nethercott stated as the
aims of the pledge.
"I thought it was impor-tant
that if I went, I
(would) come to Bethel to
share missions in general
and Edinburgh in particu-lar,"
said Nethercott. "We
need thousands of people
at home praying and financ-ing.
This is every bit as
important as someone ac-tually
going.
"Let's not look for Christ
to return," Nethercott said,
"until all nations and all
peoples have heard of

The next competition
will be at Illinois State

Last year Wheaton

"That tournament will de-termine

Understanding abstract art takes time
By Doug Barkey
It seems like Bethel has always had an overabun-dance
of art critics on campus. In fact, it is amazing the
number of students that are so knowledgeable about
art. After all, its not a small matter to call an art piece
"junk," a word often spoken in reference to the sculp-tures
and other words of abstract art that enhance the
campus. After a lengthy three-second analysis, "junk,"
or some other signal of disgust, is tossed out to indicate
that the art work doesn't contain any recognizable
object.
Ironically, most people think they understand an
artwork if they can recognize something in it; however,
a good representational piece is much more than first
impressions. Few people seem to recognize the fact that
abstract art and representational art deal with the same
forms, shapes, composition and ideas; they just express
them differently.
A correct analogy would be the relation of the English
language to the Spanish language. In comparison,
abstraction and representation are merely two visual
languages.
On the side, I should also note that of the two,
abstract art is the "honest" one; in other words, the
literal one. After all, part of the purpose of realism is to
fool the viewer into thinking that the artwork is real.
Abstract- art simply recognizes that the medium should
be a two-dimensional reality and not a three-dimen-sional
illusion.
To even begin to understand abstract art, it must be
understood that it deals with a reality that is not of the
physical world. The language of abstract art is that of
color, shape, texture, stroke, lines, value, intensity, etc...
Representational art also has these aspects, but an
abstraction distills them; it isolates these elements and
creates a different world. Naturally the question arises
as to how this different language can be understood. To
put it simply: it takes time. A piece of representational
or abstract art cannot be understood in a glance.
Don't misunderstand me; all art does not have a
meaning. Some art pieces are beautiful visual games
where the artist leads the viewer's eyes around and
through colors and shapes solely for pleasure. Other
artworks can be painful, spiritual struggles that are
ripped out of the artist's heart and placed self-conscious-ly
on a canvas or pedestal. In such manner the viewer
must struggle with art, and this is its beauty: to dis-cover
the mystery, to unravel the construction, to see
something in a new way, to find new meaning or simply
to enjoy the intricacy of color or shape. (Consider this in
comparison to much of "Christian art," where a stale
idea is stated in a safe, conventional way so as to he
understood through an economical expenditure of a few
seconds! It is sad, though, to consider the way in which
much of "Christian art" has sold out to the masses,
bowing to the demands for an easy-understand-easy-forget
art.
The viewer is not to be blamed. It is just that our
society conditions us to a transient and shallow art,
where all that is needed is a quick glance. A few
seconds of visual contact is all this distortion of art can
handle, and that is because there is nothing else to it. It's
shallowness can be comprehended in a mere glimpse,
and then it can be discarded. Another word commonly
used for things that are discarded is... junk.

Future studies course
to help students plan
From Our
compiled by Jay Russell
Bill Johnson will team teach a futures course next spring.
by Shari Goddard
What would Christians
do if a drug company made
a safe abortion pill? How
far should we allow gene-tic
management to go? How
should we plan our lives
with the depletion of nat-ural
resources? These are
a few of the issues a new
class at Bethel will attempt
to prepare students for in
the future.
Team-taught by Bill John-son
of the political science
department and David Lee,
associate professor of
speech-communication,
"Thinking in the Future
Tense" will explore the fu-ture.
Ironically, the class it-self
is a new innovation.
Open to juniors and sen-iors,
it will fit in as a bal-ance
course. Its 300-level
standing counts towards
the 15 upper-level courses
required for most students'
graduation.
Johnson hopes to draw
together students from all
concentrations. He said
Christians too often ignore
planning for the future.
They are either the "Hal
Lindsays with their view
of the future beginning
with the second coming,"
or they fatalistically leave
all planning in the Lord's
hands.
Johnson said Christians
are responsible for the
world until the Lord re-turns.
The two men will "gen-uinely
team-teach." Each
will take part in all class
sessions and look on the
class as a part of their own
learning. Johnson said that
will also allow students to
see the teachers arguing.
They hope to encourage
students to challenge oth-ers'
ideas.
The class is limited to
upperclassmen because, ac-cording
to Johnson, they
are more experienced in
asking questions and prob-ing
for answers.

From the October 25, 1968
issue.
Nixon winner.
College editors from the
Associated Collegiate Press
predicted Richard Nixon
would win the 1968 presi-dential
election.
Seven per cent of the
nation's editors were sur-veyed
by the school of
journalism and mass com-munication
at the Univer-sity
of Minnesota. Of the
seven per cent, 91 per cent
predicted Nixon would win
the presidential race, al-though
only 50 per cent
said they would vote for
him. Hubert Humphrey re-ceived
37 per cent of the
vote, while George Wal-lace
and Dick Gregory re-ceived
one-and-a-half per
cent each. Ten per cent
were undecided.
Marion James Hall.
Junior Ralph Sheppard
presented a petition with
the names of more than
450 Bethel students to Vir-gil
Olson, dean of the col-lege.
The petition requested
that the new dorm on new
campus (now Nelson res-idence),
be named Marion
James Hall.
Sheppard spearheaded
the drive for the petition,
which honored "our de-parted
friend, Marion
James" (a student).
Dean Olson "cautioned
that 'we must take a com-posite
look at the new cam-pus
before naming parts.'
He pointed out that the
possibility of carrying over
names from the present
campus must be examined,
and that perhaps the pol-icy
of naming buildings
after people needs to be
carefully thought through."
IM bowling.
Bethel's first intramural
bowling competition began
in the fall of 1968, with
New Dorm taking the cham-pionship.

opponent with a score of
2218 to 1753, in team corn-petition.
In the individual tour-nament,

Library cubicle. 9:30 p.m. Paralyzed within a three-walled
world. Two overdue papers claw my mind. The
lure to loaf has lost its spell. I'm now bound by time to
my wooden nook. I glance at the clock.
Toxic smells from this cheap ink pen nauseate me. An
introduction paragraph lacking a thesis gets shoved
into the corner. My pen follows. Sweaty palms coast
down my thighs.
Tomorrow's reading assignment offers a nice retreat.
Pages 64-119. By page 66 I predict the rest to be dry.
Scanning speed: on. Key words and phrases flash like
city neons. Higher page numbers make me smile. Page
71, neck cramps. Book tilts to 45 degrees. I glance at the
clock.
Time lapse. The valley between my thumb and index
finger nestles up under my lower lip. Launching years
ahead I discover myself sitting at an outdoor cafe in
France. Gentle breeze. Mellow music. Suddenly I spy
an enchanting mate sitting alone at a distant table. My
heart throbs. Her eyes catch mine. An external ten-second
stare melts everything within me.
Like taking a cue in a play, I leave my seat and sit at
her table. Silence reigns. Our eyes speak infinitely more
eloquent than words could attempt. Like magnets in
slow motion we near each other's lips for a kiss. What
bliss. What? Page 75. The cold light and the perpetual
drone of the library heavens slap me back to reality. I
glance at the clock.
"Gotta go soon," I figure, "but gotta finish this read-ing.
Teacher might ask me a question. Hope not. Yet I
ought to get this stuff down. Teacher won't like me so
much if I don't. Gotta get this stuff down. I master the
last page of the two chapters required. "Got it down.
Gotta go."
Bounding down the gym steps I wave the bus to a
halt. Ah, an empty seat. Bit cold. Feels good. Across the
frosted window my middle finger melts an aimless
path. The clear parts cloud as my breath rolls out. I
notice that I've traced something like a dollar sign.
"Money," I say to myself as if to one beside me.
"That's right. Three-quarters of my education is paid by
loans. So where am I at? I'm studying to get good grades
to get a good degree to get a good enough job to pay off
my loans!" Another finger substitutes in for doodling.
"I feel locked into a cycle I can't escape. I can't even
take three courses, a healthy amount, without paying
for four. This full load I got makes all my studies suffer.
It makes me suffer. I'm sick of money.
I set my alarm for an hour earlier. Ahh, my bed. Best
fix I got to escape reality. And it's free. My body stills.
My mind races from the day's momentum. Mental
fragments dash round and round an endless track:
unfinished homework, unfulfilled passions and unre-solved
fears of what others may think about me. They
gnaw me to sleep. God help me. Dreams that night were
turbulent yet cathartic.
Stay tuned to this channel. More to follow....

Healy orphanage shelters needy Filipino children
by Beth Stien
Corpus Christe is a pio-neer
venture in missions.
Better known to the Bethel
community as the "Healy
orphanage," this shelter
home for Filipino children
began in 1979 with a group
of seven people who felt a
special burden for the
needy children of Cebu
City, Cebu Island.
The Healys make it clear,
however, that Corpus
Christe is not "their" or-phanage.
"The Filipino chil-dren
are the name of the
game," said Jerry Healy,
professor in the English
department at Bethel. "The
staff at Corpus Christe
does not wish to be the
highlight of the operation,
what's important are the
kids," he said.
Yet the Healy family is
closely tied to the work at
Corpus Christe. Healy's
son Paul, a Bethel gradu-ate,
and daughter-in-law
Marlys are among the
seven who pioneered this
unique mission. Jerr.
serves as chairman of the
board of directors for the
DelAdwalwan Founda-tion,
a non-profit, fund-raising
organization
whose job is to raise mon-ey
for and support the
work at Corpus Christe.
Jerry's wife, Millie, their
daughter Liz (also a Bethel
graduate) and their son
Dave are all on the board
of directors. Dave, an in-structor
in the English de-partment,
and his wife
Nancy edit the bi-monthly
newsletter which DelAd-walwan
sends to its sup-porters.
The prime focus of this
mission, however, is in Ce-bu
City. The seven-mem-ber
staff lives in one four-bedroom
house and at the
present time cares for four
children. These children
range in age from a few
days to seven years, and
require 24-hour care.
A child stays at the shel-ter
home anywhere from
one to eight months. "Al-most
all the children they
get are sick and usually

Two or three students
almost always wait out-side
Scott Wallace's office
door, with another stu-dent
inside his office. Ear-ly
in the semester, Wallace
told his accounting class,
"If you have trouble with
your accounting problems
or anything else, come to
my office. That's why I
have office hours. And I
mean that."
When students enter
Wallace's office, they see
two items that Wallace
invariably points out. One
is a poster that says, "If it
was easy, anyone could do
it." The other is a Phila-delphia
Phillies baseball
cap.
Wallace is originally
from Philadelphia, which
explains his non-Minne-sota
accent. It also ex-plains
why he brought his
red Phillies cap to class
and hung it over the lamp
of the overhead projector
as if it were a Phillies
mascot.
Wallace is good-natured
and likes to tease his stu-dent
s (always with a
smile on his face) about
almost anything—whe-ther
they are Kansas City
Royals fans or whether
they should receive extra
points for bringing him cof-fee
in his morning classes.
That's his way of showing
that he cares about his
students. And even
though each of his Ac-counting
I classes number
have just been hospital-ized,"
said Jerry Healy.
"They typically come mal-nourished,
with tubercu-losis
or skabies (a skin
disease), and the home
gives them medical treat-ment,"
he said.
over 50 students, he knew
each class member by
name after the first few
weeks of the semester.
Wallace is a hard work-er,
which explains the
reason for the poster in his
office. He not only is a
full-time teacher, but he is
also a full-time owner of
an accounting firm—the
W. Scott Wallace account-ing
firm. As if that were
not enough, he teaches a
night course for certified
life underwriters (specia-lized
insurance people).
He is also married and a
father of two daughters,
one of whom is a fresh-man
at Bethel.
Three times a week Wal-lace

early hour is not unusual
After their stay at Cor-pus
Christe, some children
are adopted, some are re-turned
to their parents and
some are sent to other in-stitutions.
Corpus Christe has an-other
ministry in addition
to him because he is out of
bed every day at 5 a.m.
Wallace says of his sche-dule,
"I know I am busy.
But if I had extra time, I'd
waste it."
Wallace received his
B.S. degree in economics
from Franklin Marshall
College in Lancaster, Penn-sylvania,
where he also
played varsity football for
four years. He was certi-fied
as a certified public
accountant and moved
from Philadelphia to Del-aware
to work as an ac-countant.
After only five years,
Wallace became a pail net'
in the accounting firm.
This was also the time he
rededicated his life to the
Lord. Soon after, he began
to the shelter home. The
staff ministers to the chil-dren
and mothers in sev-eral
"squatters' villages"
within the city. This in-volves
getting medical
see page 10
to look for full-time Chris-tian
work where he could
use his accounting skills.
It wasn't until 1976 that
Wallace received a phone
call from a Christian bus-inessman
in Denver, Colo-rado.
He wanted Wallace
to come to Minnesota to
help establish an office in
St. Paul. Wallace came
and two years later,
bought out the company
he now owns.
Wallace said that last
year he was led by the
Lad and coaxed by Steve
Simpson to teach at Be-thel.
He said that he likes
teaching at Bethel and en-joys
the fellowship he has
with both students and
faculty. His biggest sur-prise
about Bohol how-ever,
is I he LW: He rails it

As a teacher, Wallace
said he has a "bigger com-mitment
to teaching than

music itself carries a very
strong message. If Chris-tian
lyrics are added to it,
they are incongruous, be-cause
the music conveys
one message and the words
another." But Leafblad
says the church should gen-erate
new music of its own,
and laments the fact that
most of the material in our
hymnals was written be-fore
the twentieth century.
Leafblad's wife, June, is
also a Bethel graduate.
They have two children,
twins, Stewart and Steph-anie,
nine.
Leafblad said he will
have to go back to Minne-sota-
types of recreation.
"In California I was a beach
bum, a desert rat, and I
loved the mountains," he
said. But he is looking for-ward
to fishing and water
skiing here in his native
state, when his busy sche-dule
and the season per-mit.
Hard work accounts for Wallace's success
Conceptual artist Richard Cooper creates a visual effect in Bethel's art gallery by placing
objects in a specific space. Cooper's conceptual art centers on ideas and concepts, rather
than other physical forms of art. (photos by Doug Barkey and Dan Velie).

Artist builds
unique work
for gallery
by Randy Pate
Richard Cooper, a con-ceptual
artist, staged an
exhibition Tuesday, Nov.
11. He showed slides of
his previous work and dis-played
his new project
created exclusively for the
Bethel Art Gallery. Stu-dents
Don Nelson and Paul-ine
Newburgh collaborated
in setting up the project.
The closing for his display
will be Nov. 21, from 7-9
p.m.

"His display will seem
very strange to our con-servative
Bethel students,"
said Dale Johnson, asso-ciate
professor of art. Con-ceptual
art deals with
ideas and concepts unlike
paintings, sculptures, or
other physical forms of
art. Cooper makes the
space itself a piece of art
by placing objects in it to
give a different visual ef-fect
to each person who
sees it.
In addition to his dis-play,
Cooper will be work-ing
in December with cho-reographer
Sage Cowles
to produce a show entitled
"Shuffle and Click".
Cowles' job will be to fill
the space created by Coo-per
with bodies. She will
randomly select viewers
from the audience to come
down and with guidance
enter into the show.
The title of "Shuffle and
Click" comes from the six
slide projectors which
throughout the show will
be flashing various pic-tures
that are supposed to
give the audience a float-ing
effect.
The production is being
made possible by a $4,000
grant from the Jerome Foun-da
lion to the, general
school fund. The project's
total cost will amount to
$7,245 of which Bethel will
have to pay $3,245. There
will be showings on Dec.
8, at 7 and 8:30 p.m.
The show will then travel
to the Walker Art Center
followed by a tour of the
state.
Cooper is a member of
the Glen Hanson Art Gal-lery
in Minneapolis. He
received his master's of
Fine Arts in sculpture from
Washington University in
SI. Louis, Missouri in 1973.
He was also an instructor
al the Minneapolis College
Of Art and Design in 1979.

Bruce Leafblad, a former
Bethel student, after sev-eral
years absence, has re-turned
as a professor.
Leafblad graduated from
Bethel College in 1962, ma-joring
in music and spe-cializing
in voice. He grad-uated
from Bethel semin-ary
in 1966.
In 1979 Ledblad was
chosen Bethel Alumnus of
the Year, an award deter-mined
on the basis of the
student's life after gradua-tion.
Leafblad spent most of
his years since his gradua-tion
as one of the pastors
at Lake Avenue Con-gregational
Church in Pasa-dena,
California. He was
in charge of all music min-istries
for the large church,
a job allowing little time
for singing, but requiring
much conducting.
Leafblad also earned a
doctorate in church music
at the University of Sou-thern
California.
A couple of years ago
Leafblad began feeling that
his ministry at the Lake
Avenue church was com-ing
to an end. Soon after
that he received requests
from six different colleges
offering him teaching posi-tions,
one of them Bethel.
Leafblad decided God
wanted him at Bethel. He
is now an associate pro-fessor
of church music and
worship. Leafblad says the
department is breaking
new ground, because this
is the only church music
program in the country
which involves both a col-lege
and a seminary.
Leafblad is excited about
his work and certain that
this is where God wants
him. He likes his students
and feels he communicates
well with them.
The most striking change
in Bethel for Leafblad since
he was a student here is
the way it has grown. "The
college used to have only
about 500 students. Now
there are almost that many
in the seminary," he said.
Leafblad sees a "freshness
and openness" and a "great-er
zeal to integrate faith
and learning" than when
he attended in the early
'60s. He said there is "more
diversity in students," a
"greater blend, which en-riches
life at Bethel."
Leafblad was asked
what he thinks about us-ing

Susan Ogden-Malouf,
new assistant professor of
theatre arts, joined. the
Bethel theatre arts staff
after finishing her docto-rate
at Northwestern Uni-versity
in theatre arts
last August. Ogden-Ma-louf
was attracted to
Bethel because it is a
Christian College. She en-joys
the Christian atmos-phere
and the interaction
the students have with the
faculty.
Ogden-Malouf set a goal
to help students at Bethel
learn. She would also like
to assist the development
of Christian theatre. A
particular interest is the
exploration. of ritual or
worship theatre.' She en-joys
theatre because, "It is
a primary experience. It is
very powerful."
Ogden-Malouf began act-ing
as a senior in high
school. "I fell in love with
it," she reminisced. She
received a lot of encour-agement
from instructors.
While attending Stanford
University, she also did
some acting.
After directing a dorm
play her sophomore year,
Ogden-Malouf discovered
her talent for directing.
Without a great deal of
acting experience, she be-gan
to direct more plays
throughout college.
After graduating from
Stanford, Ogden-Malouf at-tended
Northwestern Uni-versity,
earning her mas-ter's
degree and doctorate
in theatre arts. While at
Northwestern, she took'
many directing classes.
The highlight of Ogden-
Malouf's college career in
directing was her senior
year at Stanford. An or-ganization
called Ram's
Head put on an annual
musical. The organization
eventually died out. Og-den-
Malouf resurrected
the organization and di-rected
the musical.
Ogden-Malouf teaches
creative performance,
theatre history, and words
and ideas. During the
spring, she will direct
"The Madwoman of Chail-lot,"
a satire on capitalism.
Ogden-Malouf is mar-ried
to Jeff Ogden, part
time instructor of account-ing
at Bethel. During their
free time, they enjoy tennis
and a variety of other
sports.

Ex-faculty face life after Bethel
John Piper, former associate professor of biblical studies,
has now become senior pastor at Bethlehem Baptist Church.
by Ginger Hope
Leaving Bethel to begin
a new life is usually asso-ciated
with graduating stu-dents,
but some professors
also face this challenge.
Eight members of last
year's faculty have moved
to new situations this year-some
across the country,
or across the state, across
town, or just across cam-pus.
Two former faculty mem-bers
have switched to pas-toral
roles. John Piper, for-merly
an associate profes-
Hodgson specializes in
tricks that are easy to trans-port.
He has used assist-ants
and lots of props, but
found it to be impractical.
Hodgson practices every
effect until he is comfor-table
with it. Then he
thinks about how it can be
performed creatively. He
sor in biblical studies, is
now senior pastor at Beth-lehem
Baptist Church,
Mpls.
Philip Sackett, former
associate professor of chem-istry,
has taken a church
in Milaca, Minn. He is offi-cially
on a one-year leave
of absence, "trying to de-termine
if the Lord is lead-ing
him to be a pastor or a
professor," said Dean
George Brushaber.
,Wayne Fri tchie, who was
an instructor in music, has
gone into business in the
Twin Cities area.
also adapts the tricks to
the audience and the set-ting.
Hodgson said he takes
magic lighter that some
other magicians. He would
like to perform for groups
that need him. "I just want
to be used," he said smil-ing.
Two of last year's facul-ty
are over-the-hill—at the
seminary. Robert Stein, for-mer
professor of biblical
st udies, and John Sailha-mer,
once an assistant pro-fessor
in biblical studies,
now teach at the semin-ary.
Da vid Bausch and Charles
"Chub" Reynolds now

our schools. Rausch, for-mer
assistant professor in
history and geography,
now teaches in Ashland

them food and cloth-ing
and instructing moth-ers
how to better care for
their children.
Jerry and Millie Healy
went to Cebu City for a
month this past summer
to visit the home and see
Corpus Christe in action.
Both came away "thorough-ly
convinced of the need
for the work," he said.
Corpus Christe is pre-sently
below the eight-chil-dren
capacity. Ideally, the
mission would like to get
more children. They own
nine acres of land south of
Cebu City, as well as the
house, and have future
plans to build on the prop-erty.
They would keep the
house in Cebu as quaran-tine
quarters, but need 12-
15 children before such an
operation can take place.
Ruth Oliver, a junior at
Bethel, went to Corpus
Christe under SMP this
summer. She was impressed
by the boldness of these
young people to venture
out on their own and begin
such a unique ministry. "I
am really impressed with
the lifestyle these people
have taken on," said Oli-ver.
"They have set up a
new system and ministry
in another culture. This is
very difficult to start from
scratch, as they have done.
They've moved out in such
faith, and are doing an
excellent job."
Oliver became familiar
with the home through
Central Baptist Church,
where the Healys attend.
When she found out Cor-pus
Christe had a need for
extra help this summer,
she took the opportunity
to go under SMP.
"The orphanage opened
my eyes to a type of ser-vice
ministry that a lot of
people, including myself,
don't realize exists," said
Oliver.
Theological Seminary in
Ohio. Reynolds, former as-sistant
professor in physi-cal
education and head foot-ball
coach is teaching and
coaching in Northwestern
College in Roseville.
The only faculty mem-ber
to retire last year was
Junet Runbeck, professor
in education. Two more
faculty members plan to
retire after this semester:
Olaf Olsen, professor in
history; and C. Howard
Smith, professor in music.
An elementary educa-tion
major, Oliver feels a
strong pull to return next
summer and focus on edu-cation.
She foresees a
move there permanently
after graduation. "I'd like
to teach in a Christian or
private school for Filipino
children. They have such
a great need, materially as
well as spiritually," she
said. She sees the focus on
practical application of ag-riculture
programs and nu-trition
important to such
teaching.
Bethel students can do
many things to involve
themselves in the Corpus
Christe ministry:
-Receive the newsletter,
which comes every other
month. Read it and stay
informed.
-Support the mission
through letters. Write the
staff and encourage them
in their work. "Writing let-ters
is a great support,"
said Oliver. "Write and let
them know of the interest
here in their work."
-Tell others about the
work at Corpus Christe.
-Support the mission
financially.
-Help send out the news-letter.
Del Adlawan needs
three or four people to help
with distribution.
-Pray for the staff's pa-tience
and endurance.
-Anyone interested in
the work at Corpus Christe
can contact Jerry or Dave
Healy or Ruth Oliver.

Wallace has some goals
for Bethel's busine-ss de-partment.
He would like
to see four more classes
added to keep many ac-counting
students from

schools. The added courses
would help to "keep and
prepare s I uden s to be
competitive in the job
market."

It's magical, it's myste-rious,
and yet, it's a minis-try.
Magician Joel Hodg-son
uses his talent for ma-gic
as "a vehicle for spread-ing
the gospel."
Hodgson, a junior at Be-thel
College, performs ma-gic
as a ministry. When on
stage, he allows the aud-ience
to feel comfortable
with his humor and his
tricks. Then he shares
something pertinent. At
the end of his show, he
will share his testimony.
Hodgson, now 20, began
his career in seventh grade.
He began as a ventrilo-quist,
after graduating
from a 30-lesson course. "I
did it for attention," he
admitted.
After seventh grade,
Hodgson met a friend at
Bible camp who introduced
him to magic. He imme-diately
was intrigued by
the fun and challenge of it.
The friend put Hodgson in
touch with a magician's
club.
In eighth grade, Hodg-son
started doing birthday
party shows that combined
ventriloquism and magic.
While he was in high
school, demand had grown
to one or more shows a
week.
Hodgson has performed
at banquets, talent shows
and spent two summers
doing magic at a local res-taurant.
Hodgson did a
Christmas special twice
for local television in Green
Bay, Wisc., where he grew
up.
He still does shows
while in college. He has
performed at Christian cof-feeshops
and fronted for
some. Christian rock and
roll bands.
Hodgson wants his aud-ience
to know that the ma-gic
performed is just sim-ple
tricks. "They are meant
to be fun," said Hodgson.

This is the first of a two
part series on Bethel bas-ketball:
this week a look at
last year's "runnin' Roy-als",
the most successful
team in Bethel history.
Some people wondered
how long it would take
Head Coach George Palke
to rejuvenate the basket-ball
program at Bethel.
There was no denying he
had a good nucleus to
work with in his first year
as the Royal mentor. At
guard, seniors Dave Blan-chard
and Torn Weko re-turned
from the year be-fore.
Wingmen Gary and
Greg Edlund transferred
in from a junior college in
California. Veterans Rey
Miller and Scott Wilson
solidified the post posi-tion.
Add Jason Velgers-dyk,
the 6'-7" freshman
from Edina and you can
see why Bethel fans were
smiling.
The season started out
in normal fashion as the
Royals buried the alumni
and then topped Concordia-
St. Paul for Coach Palke's
debut victory. It looked
like the beginning of a ser-ies
but the Royals blew a
17-point lead in the next
game at Superior, losing
87-86.
The team then went out
west for two games, beat-ing
Rocky Mountain Col-lege
after losing to Eastern
Montana. The Royals then
returned home and whip-by

Bethel wrestling coach
Dave Klostreich said that
despite his team's youth
and inexperience, it should
do fairly well and could
place as high as third in
the MIAC conference.
The team is led this year
by co-captains Greg Wid-mer
and Greg Heinsch and
veterans Russ Reynolds
and Mike Anderson.
Following is a weight-by-
weight preview of the
1980-81 Royal Wrestling
team:
118—The battle for this
spot will be between fresh-men
Don Lint from Cadil-lac,
Mich., and Sean Joyce
of St. Paul, Minn.
126—Sophomore Russ
Reynolds, who placed
fourth in the conference
last year at 118, is moving
up to 126 this year. He will
be challenging incumbent
ped St. Thomas in the con-ference
opener 89-70. Five
Bethel players hit double
figures, a feat that would
happen several times dur-ing
the season.
Next stop for the cagers
was Chicago and the Trin-ity
tournament. The Roy-als
took home the first-place
hardware with easy
victories over Northwest-ern
and. Trinity. Skeptics
were starting to believe as
the Royals record went to
5-2.
The next five games,
however, probably made
them doubt. Crippled with
injuries, the Royals beat
only St. Olaf at the Augs-burg
invitational. They
lost to Northwestern and
St. Thomas, both of whom
they had already defeated
soundly.
The Royal five then re-sumed
the long conference
haul against Augsburg
and St. John's. Playing at
home against the Auggies,
the slumping Royals
looked tight, losing 73-45.
It was the same story at
Collegeville as their rec-ord
dropped to 6-6 with
the 81-60 defeat.
And then it happened.
As if they suddenly real-ized
their potential, the
Royals came on like gang-busters.
The first victim
was Macalester. Scoring
65 points in the first half,
the Royals decimated the
Scots 114-84. Excitement

years. This year his com-petition
will come from

swept throught the cam-pus
as if a gold rush were
taking place.
Fired up by big Steve
"Hoss" Carrigan and the
rest of the team, during
the unique Sweet Georgia
Brown warmup, the fans
began packing out the Rob-ertson
P.E. Center. On the
road Royal fans outdrew
at least three other schools.
As the blue and gold
rolled on, names and num-bers
became blurred. St.
Mary's by nine, St. Olaf
by six, Hamline, Concor-dia,
Gustavus in overtime.
Suddenly, the Royals
found themselves in a
chase for the playoffs. If
they could win their next
two games they would be
in second place in the
MIAC.
Alas, it was not to be.
Perhaps looking ahead
to the big match-up
against St. John's, the Beth-el
cagers were upset by St.
Thomas 73-66. To make
matters worse, after lead-ing
the Johnnies most of
the way, center John Eisen-schenk
hit an 18-footer
with two seconds left
stunning the Royal fans
with the 63-61 defeat.
After that crushing loss
with play-off hopes almost
certainly dashed, the team
could have given up. They
did not. The best was yet
to come. The next oppo-nent
was Augsburg: 20-0,

was not even close. All the
major area newspapers
had Royal headlines on
the 90-74, "Bethel hands
Augsburg 1st loss." The
program had arrived.
Five more victories came
in a row before Gustavus
ended Bethel's season with
a 79-75 loss. The team
played a little flat against
the Gusties, possibly be-cause
they had just found
out that, win or lose, they
did not have a playoff invi-tation.
The long, exciting sea-son
had finally ended. The
tale of the tape read: 18-9
overall record, 13-5 and
third place in the confer-ence
(12 wins of their last
15 games), 12 new team
records, including most
wins, and 10 new individ-ual
records. Three players,
Blanchard, Miller and Wil-son,
were named all-confer-ence:

named all-NAIA district

returns for her third
year as manager.
The first game is Decem-ber

Northfield.
The first home game is
December 9, against Con-cordia,

LaRock is optimistic
about the team. "There's a
lot of good, young talent.
There's a depth that we
haven't had in the past."
There is a full junior var-sity
this season so there
will be "good playing
time," says LaRock.
"We're looking to run a
faster game....We're work-ing
on the defense. We will
need to learn to read the
defense and play them,"
said LaRock.
The team has good
height this year, with six
of the women being over
5'10", one of them fresh-man
Keri Deboer. There
are many promising fresh-men
this year, LaRock said.
"We have good, quick
freshmen guards."
Right now, the team is
still looking at people and
working with skills. "We
are battling with small,
nagging injuries," says La-
Rock. With an 11-10 rec-ord
from last year, she
sees potential in the team.
The team has four
games planned before
Christmas break. This is a
lighter schedule than last
year when they had six. A
major trip is planned for
the end of interim to
Wheaton, Ill. The team will
play three other schools in
a Christian College tourna-ment.

The women's volleyball
team tied for fourth place
after losing to Macalester
15-3, 15-3 last weekend at
the state volleyball tour-nament.
Friday's tournament ac-tion
left the Royals with a
4-6 record and a place in
the play-off's held Sat-urday.
Bethel earned the
place by achieving a high-.
er number of total points
than Winona who also had
a 4-6 record after Friday's
play.
Merry Olmstead com-mented,
"We played well;
it was a good way to end
the season."
Joy Sorenson reflected,
"We were happy to get
into the play-offs on Sat-urday.
The team who took
first (Macalester) beat us.
I'm proud of the team; we
did a real good job this
season. We came further
this year than ever before."
Team co-captain JoAnn
Griffin said, "I think we
finished the season reason-ably
well. I was disappoint-ed
with the way it ended,
losing to Mac, but we had
a good season overall."
Friday the Royals defeat-ed
Gustavus twice, lost
two to St. Kates, split with
Morris, 15-9, and 11-15,
lost two to Moorhead and
split with Dr. Martin Lu-ther
College, 15-4 and 16-

tie for fifth place with
St. Mary's and Concordia-

New Bethel trainer, Neal
Dutton, is currently fulfil-ling
a goal that he has had
for a long time. "One of my
goals was to be a trainer at
the collegiate level, and
I'm really enjoying my-self,"
said Dutton.
Dutton also hopes to im-plement
a complete stu-dent
trainer program. He
currently has two students,
Brad Kroulik and Deb
Sension, working with him
but he would like to get
more students involved.
"Brad and Deb really do a
good job," said Dutton. "I
would like to get more
student trainers involved
and really get a good pro-gram
going," he continued.
Dutton earned his bach-elor's
degree from Eastern
Washington University
where he majored in phys-ical
education, with an ath-letic
training emphasis.
He went on to South
Dakota State University
where he received his mas-ter's
degree. While study-ing
at South Dakota State,
he served as graduate as-sistant
trainer and assist-ant
basketball coach.
Dutton learned of the
Bethel opening from the
head trainer at SDSU. To
him this meant a chance to
fulfill his goal of being a
full-time trainer on the col-legiate
level. He applied
and was offered the job.
Dutton is very impressed
with the Bethel commun-ity.
"There is more empha-sis
on Christianity and
more commitment to the
Lord than I expected," said
Dutton.

The Royals gridders end-ed
their season on a sour
note last Saturday with a
42-23 loss to Augsburg.
The Auggies scored early
and often, and a late rally
by Bethel was not enough
to catch them.
The Auggies took the
advantage on the first play
of the game, returning the
opening kickoff 92 yards
for a touchdown. The Roy-als
could not move the ball
on offense and had to punt.
Aided by a 34-yard run,
the Auggies moved in to
score, the last yard corn-ing
on a quarterback sneak
by Steve Yeazle, giving
Augsburg a 14-0 lead.
In the second quarter,
the Auggies scored again
to take a 21-0 lead 'before
Bethel finally got on the
scoreboard. The big play
in the Bethel drive was a
65-yard run by Brad Flater,
bringing the ball down to
the 15-yard line. Jim An-erstrom
threw a pass to
Pete Kramka in the end
zone but the play was nul-lified
by a penalty against
the Royals.
Anderstrom was sacked
on the next play, and it
looked like the Royals
were out of scoring range.
But a screen to Fla ter
brought, the ball back to
the 10-yard line. On fourth
down, Anderstrom hit Ken
Cooper for a touchdown to
bring the score to 21-7.
The Auggies brought the
ball downfield again, aid-ed
by a pass-interference
penalty against the Roy-als.
A four-yard touch-down
run gave Augsburg
a 28-7 halftime lead.
The Royals missed a
good scoring opportunity
early in the second half.
Doug Hill ran for 40 yards
down to the Augsburg 19-
yard line. But Anderstrom's
fourth down pass to Kram-ka
was deflected at the'
five-yard line.
The Auggies went down
the field again, the big
plays being two passes:
one for 15 and one for 20
yards. Halfback Joe Roth
scored his third touchdown
of the game, lifting the
Auggies' lead to 35-7. Augs-burg
upped their score to
42-7 on a three-yard run
by Yeazle after the Aug-gies
had used a fake field
goal on fourth down for a
first down.
Bethel scored twice in
the last seven minutes of
the game. The first touch-down
on a four-yard pass
from Anderstrom to Brian
Johnson. Anderstrom ran
for a two-point conversion
to make the score 42-15,
Augsburg. The Royals' last
touchdown of the season
came on a six-yard pass
from Anderstrom to Kram-ka.
Anderstrom ran again
for two points to make the
final score Augsburg 42,
Bethel 23.
This was the last game for
nine Royal seniors. They
are co-captains Paul Carl-son
and Jim Anderstrom,
Scott Engstrom, Paul Lind-berg,
Dave Moberg, Bob
Goebel, Rich Graves, Kelly
"Bando" Brandes and Mark
Johnson.

Bethel's hockey team be-gins
its season with an
away game against Eau
Claire Nov. 22. Tonight
they play a pre-season
game against alumni at
Columbia Arena. The team
and coaches said that they
are looking forward to this
season with their first full-time
coach and a new,-
young team. "We're going
to have a little more depth
than in the past," said
Steve Kettelkamp, senior
forward.
When Coach Dahl was
asked what the team's
strengths were, he said,
"None. No, our strength
has been in our enthusi-asm
and our willingness
to work hard." He pointed
out that the youth of the
team, 34 members with
only three seniors and 20
freshmen and transfers,
hold promise for the corn-ing
years.
Kevin Hadlich, a team
captain, said that there is
a positive attitude among
the team and the coaches
and a "new commitment
toward God from the play-ers."
Dahl said, "My philoso-phy
is a little different
from most athletic philos-ophies:
Strive to play to
your best ability with real
inner motivation. I believe
that that's what God
wants. When you become
motivated internally, then
things happen."
Dahl down-plays the vio-lence
of hockey. "I've played
both hockey and foot-ball
and I think football is
the more violent." He hopes
to train the Bethel team
along European standards,
with an emphasis on grace,
strength and intelligence,
rather than brute strength.
The MIAC rules state
that fighting will lead to a
forfeit of two games by a
player. Dahl stretched that
ban to three games for any
Bethel student who starts
a fight.
The team started prac-ticing
earlier this year than
in past years. They began
off-ice training at the be-ginning
of the school year
and started skating a
month ago. All home
games will be played at
Columbia Arena.
"We're optimistic," Ket-telkamp
said. "Craig Dahl
is going to pull the team
together."
